💻 "Computer technology will replace handwriting." We hear it all the time! But kids still need to write in school, and for many, it’s a struggle filled with frustration and resistance. So, if handwriting seems less important, why should we care?

Let’s pause and ask: Why the frustration? What’s stopping kids from mastering a skill that seems second nature to us?

✍️ Handwriting is more than just pencil and paper — it’s a complex brain function involving visualization, memory, and sensory processing. When writing feels hard, it’s often because these foundational skills haven’t become automatic.

Starting with basic shapes lays the foundation for smooth, fluent handwriting later on. It’s about setting up kids for success one step at a time!

This is something that is misinterpreted and misused alot. The key to behavior and regulation is really being proactive rather than reactive. Recognizing and helping children become aware before it spirals and then making modifications or taking breaks before we become so dysregulated that we cannot successfully meet our environmental or activity demands.

"Sometimes, an adult will say to a student, 'Finish this one problem, and then you can go to the sensory room.' This type of bargaining is not the purpose of the sensory room; the sensory room is not a reward." —Amy Mason, Occupational Therapist
